MEET THE AMBRODAY FAMILY

MEET MAGGIE

 

“Dance fitness classes provide such a fun platform to get a great workout, dance a variety of styles and engage with others. I love seeing the smiles on the faces of everyone dancing together. It is so rewarding to see the progress in learning a new step or a new song, it’s so uplifting and powerful!“
